   Gaily tied fish flies borrowed from Dad's bait box can be worn as collar pins.

   News-kerchiefs embroidered with local gossip are cute gifts to give to boyfriends away from home.

   "Real Adult" music in Texas Rock and Rolls sets is anything that's not bop.

   That outgrown game of pin the tail on the donkey is coming back in a new Southern version: "Pin the sideburns on Elvis."

   If you've really gone haywire you've tattooed the moose.

   "Come off Mars" means you've lost your audience.

   Clips that keep cardigans in place are a hit nowadays.

    Little sisters come from a breed of people commonly known as pests, who live in a land of mischievousness. They are parents' little darling, and thorn in big sister's flesh.
   Little sisters are the world's busiest Mothers. They delight in building their houses out of big boxes, and although mother's house is usually messed up in the process, they manage to keep their houses fairly clean. They will wash their babies every hour, and change their children's clothes every five minutes; then they will run off, and Baby will be left dangling out of her buggy minus clothes and dignity.
   Little sisters don't usually care for boys unless they are friends of their big sister; then they become firmly attached to them.
   Little sisters can usually be found in big sister's things. Sure proof is the lipstick smear on the cheek. But they are sure to swear it wasn't they. The nail polish you couldn't find turns up spilled in their bottom drawer.
   Little sisters are the chattiest when you try to sleep; the noisiest at birthdays, the most angelic in front of Mother, and the most devilish when there are no witnesses, the sickest at dishwashing time, and the healthiest when you are sick.
   Still, little sisters are as loving as they are hateful. And big sisters are sure to forget all faults when little sister says to a tiny friend, "This is my big sister. Ain't her pretty?"
